caffeine and nicotine, affects gyno??

**RapaciousShark** · 01-15-2008, 01:22 AM

I got puffy, sore as f*** nips after 8 days on 5a-androst. Ok, so now I'm doing nolva.

I had to overnight the nolva because I didnt expect to have any symptoms on my light oral cycle, especially not this early. But here i am, learning the simplest lesson about roids.

Anyway I've been reading that nicotine will help SLIGHTLY as an anti-aromatase while I'm waiting for my nolva, and the caffeine will exacerbate it.

So has anyone heard anything about this info??

ive heard nicotine is a natural anti-estrogen but i cant see anybody actually reccomending it. if you must, i would say pick chew over smoking. you should have joined a few weeks sooner it looks like.

ya, I hope i don't have to wake up every day with two reminders of my monumental retardation.

An even easier and cheaper way to avoid the side effects would be to quit the cycle as soon as you get your nolva and research on here a while longer. Priority #1= read all stickies.

yeah nicotine is a mild anti-e
Pack yourself a lipper it can't hurt, but I wouldn't call it good protection from gyno
There are like a zillion examples why to have your stuff all on hand when starting
Including 1 or 2 from myself.

Those nicotine (nicorette) patches might work too, they would be much longer acting than smoking a cig.

interesting thread merc, thanks

thanks kratos too. I have a pak of cigs cuz those patches and gum cost up the ass. The cigs, VB6, and no caffeine seem to be holding the gyno at bay for the moment. Prolly just in my head, but my nipples are sore as f*** and puffy too

Friggin Nicotine !?!?!? I find it hard to believe but hey anything is possible. I just recently quit rippin' butts like a month ago.. no clue why i started to begin with but now that I am without I am much happier I dont understand how anyone regardless of the possible anti-e effects could want to use nicotine.. stuff is horrible. Almost borderline evil.. ya know what it is evil...
